Hi
Sometimes when an big effort or a strong exercise is done the muscles of the rib cage might strengthen a lot and this may cause a strong chest pain.
It is needed the reduce of the effort after this situation and some paikillers.The pain will be softer some days after.
I don't think that is a hernia.
Thank you
